Monday Feb. 7th 2011

I believe that commodity, firmness, and delight are at their highest at the EUC.  The EUC has several examples of circles; right when you walk in the circular lobby area, and the circular opening on the ceiling.  The building obviously has a high commodity score because it is always being used.  It serves as a place to socialize and get coffee, eat full meals, shop at a market, get a spartancard problem fixed, meditate at the meditation room, dance in the ballroom, learn in the classrooms and even do banking!  This building is relatively new, and has undergone several renovations, but I believe the firmness to be good as well(hopefully not speaking too soon!).  The EUC does mark a significant place for us, and it is ALWAYS crowded because of this.  The delight at the EUC is also relatively high considering its a school building.  It has unique architecture, and is designed nicely on the inside as well.  The windows let in a  lot of light which is also nice, and it has a sort of grand feeling to it, especially when walking up the massive staircases.

  1. You bring up some great points about the EUC. The materials a structure is made of, help us in feeling the "firmness" of it too. a building made of brick or stone definitely gives me the feeling of being more solid. The decorative details may also enhance your delight score too... (for me, the Faust building has more of a delight score than the library, for example)

    Even within each part of a building, you may have different commodity/firmness/delight scores too.
